pollen :(

I'm hoping to do some spring cleaning (polish, wax) this weekend, so hopefully I can take some pictures soon. My more pressing concern is getting the classic Mini running again.

half way there! Just to give you a difference between sizes.



Iphone pictures are never the best.

I love this car so much <3

^all wheel drive vert?
Mine-16x8 rotas all around. stock suspension

[VicSkimmr]

Regular vert with an IX trunk lid. I wanted to get rid of the 3rd brake light and I've been too lazy to remove the badge so far.

what size tires are you running on your style 5's (rear)

[phreshkid]

225/45-16.

Fronts are going on today after the alignment.

If you are going to run spacers, I strongly recommend converting to wheels studs. Makes life easier for everyone, including yourself.

did you go 5 lug or adapters?

[phreshkid]

did you go 5 lug or adapters?

Neither. The only 5 lug that makes these wheels worth running due to the low offset is e30 m3 5 lug. E36 5 lug or adapters would make the front wheels poke out too much.

These are fillndrills.

[VicSkimmr]

When those wheels are re-drill you'll probably want spacers (just as a general FYI, not directed to anybody). I've got 8mm up front on mine and it's still nowhere near enough. if I had bigger tires it would probably work though.

Man, I really want them wheels. SO...That's an interesting point - I'll have to find the offset difference between the two(e36 vs e30 5-lug). Anyone know off the top of their head?
